I would be even blunter than this: American conservatism stopped caring about ideas a long time ago. The old conservatism died when a Black man was elected President, and has become just a raving, racist, atavistic ideology of blind hate and irrationality ever since. That an amoral grifter like Trump would wear its corpse like the bug-man in MIB was an inevitability. It's now about raw power, not ideas.
What’s so revolting and obnoxious about [email protected]’s trolling is low wages and high tips are precisely in line with #Trump principles (and in fact right-wing conservatives in general) and contrary to the principles of the liberals who are repulsed by Trump & his repugnance.
If Trump had kicked a child down some stairs, the frenzied crowd would have experienced it's first orgasm!
Trump insulted their governor and may be indicted again. They love him.
The former president’s reception at Iowa’s Lincoln Dinner delivered a hard reality to the rest of the field: seemingly no conventional rules of politics apply to him. #News#GOP#Politics#USA#Trump#MAGA#Republicans
Donald Trump’s ascent to the presidency seven years ago led to extensive revelations about foreign influence operations run by Russia.
Now, the U.S. government has unveiled an alleged influence operation involving Chinese interests that began shortly before the 2016 election and continued into the Trump transition period. #News#GOP#Politics#USA#Trump#MAGA#Republicans
Why not go a step further and give all criminal defendants the ability to appoint a judge that's a member of their own family to preside over their cases?
That's how ludicrous Aileen Cannon presiding over Trump's document case is! Appointed by the defendant to preside over his case!
Section 455 of the U.S. Judicial Code: Any... judge shall disqualify himself in any proceeding in which his impartiality might reasonably be questioned.
And remember, Florida’s easier than other places, you have the ocean and you have the sun. There’s something about that that works. But — you (Nevada) have the sun, too, but you don’t have the ocean, I can tell. You definitely don’t have the ocean. Maybe someday you’ll have the ocean, you never know,” said Trump, who made a motion with his hand before the crowd applauded him. #Trump#MAGA#news
Australian minister calls Trump Jr. a ‘big baby’ after tour postponement
Australia DID give Donald Trump Jr. a visa to enter the country, but Jr. FALSELY blamed the government for low ticket sales and subsequent canceled event! #News#GOP#Politics#USA#Trump#MAGA#Republicans
This past week, Donald Trump announced that if elected he will prevent “foreign Christian-hating communists, socialists and Marxists” from coming to the U.S. He also suggested he would do something about the un-Christian socialists who already live here. He asked, “What are we going to do with the ones that are already here, that grew up here? I think we have to pass a new law for them.” #News#GOP#Politics#USA#Trump
Special counsel Jack Smith is reportedly ready to drop a hammer blow of up to 45 additional criminal charges on former President Donald Trump in the classified documents case, especially if Trump-friendly Judge Aileen Cannon looks set to thwart the case. #News#Trump#USA#Breaking#BreakingNews
